Security and dell updates Computer Configuration screen new
Hello
A new computer, arriving today, will be a year 1 subscription of McAfee internet security. I prefer not to activate, but rather to install and use one of my 3 licenses for Norton Internet Security 2013.
The new Configuration screens computer Dell have one called 'security and dell updates' which saves both Dell and the McAfee subscription updates. No other choice except all cannot be ignored.
If I skip this step, (1) this will prevent activation of McAfee (if not turned on, then maybe I can leave it on the computer should I want to later uninstall Norton and use McAfee, if possible)? and (2) separately, manually register updates Dell so I don't lose this Dell Update functionality?

After trying a few recent versions of Thunderbird, I have fortunately returned to 6.02, which has what I like for my profiles.
For the last few days I get insistent messages to download 31.40 security and stability update. But I do not use this version.
So my two questions are:
(1) I need these updates for version 6.02?
(2) if I download updates my version will change to 31.4.0?
Thank you.
Version 6 is old enough. You skipped a lot of upgrades.
If you load the updates go you to the version of the upgrade. This is why's called it an upgrade.
Personally, I stayed at the version 24.6 because of all the problems that versions 31 and to have shown so far. They could be close to those of problems now and when they do I will move to the top. -

Hello
There are a few things you can try:
Change the resolution of the screen;
http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Vista/change-screen-resolution
If that fixed it, go to the website of your computer manufacturer > drivers download Section > then key in your computer model number > find your operating system > find two graphics / video or from the Chipset drivers and download and install.
Then try to change the screen resolution.
Or do a restore of the system before it is passed (which will also remove MSE!).

We cannot access the Start button. The only thing that appears is the user name, the password window, and a button to shut down the computer.

In addition, ask them if you have a recovery Partition on your computer/laptop to restore it to factory settings.
See if a manual provided with the computer or go to the manufacturer's website, email or you can call for information on how to make a recovery.
Normally, you have to press F10 or F11 at startup to start the recovery process...
Another way I've seen on some models is press F8 and go to a list of startup options, and launch a recovery of standards of plant with it, by selecting the repair option.
You can also make recovery disk/s for the recovery Partition in case of a system Crash or hard drive failure.
They will tell you how to do this.
Every computer manufacturer has their way of doing recovery disk/s.

I ordered the Dell XP disc and did the re-install. It works fine now. The Dell technical support had me do some updates on the web as well. I have not had problems since. What happened with the automatic updates completely wiped out my operating system. At least I don't have to buy a new computer.
If nothing else works, try reinstalling your operating system. It worked for me.

original title: can't see the computer on wireless internet!
I hope that's not too much detail, but I would like that the sequence of events to be clear...
I have a Dell desktop computer that's probably six or seven years now. It did not come with a wireless card, so I bought a DLink router and combo card wireless, install both with the DLink software. It works beautifully.
Later, we through my rep AT & T DSL, I got a Motorola modem/router with wireless capabilities. I had plugged directly on my computer Dell desktop and moved to a Dell laptop DLink wireless receiver. No problems.
The Dell laptop is dead and the DLink receiver has not been used for a long time. Family of my daughter moved to our place, and I have connected his desktop computers and laptop to wireless internet, using the Windows Connection Wizard. Still no problem.
I got a new ASUS laptop, I also linked using the Windows Wizard. STILL no problem.
Now, here's the problem comes. I moved the Dell desktop computer, connected the DLink wireless receiver to it and I am able to get wireless access ONLY when I go into the properties of PC, click the wireless networks tab and check the "use Windows to configure my wireless network" box. Then I can connect correctly, but I don't see this computer on my wireless network. Bad luck... because I want to be able to access share files. When I try to connect using different assistants of Windows, I get a message to the effect that, if I used another software to connect to the program, I can't use the Windows Wizard.
So, what can I do to remove the original configuration of DLink completely and to connect to my wireless network using the wizards in Windows? I uninstalled the software of DLink, but it seems to have no effect at all.
BTW, Dell desktop computer is running XP, office computer of my daughter is running VISTA, and two laptops are equipped with Windows 7. I can see all the computers on the network with the exception of the original Dell desktop computer wireless.
Any help would be appreciated!
Hi Joe and DonnaLoth,
The network will have to be changed to allow the computer Windows XP join a workgroup.
